There is a Zen saying to this effect: “If you have a sword, I will give you that sword; and if you do not have the sword, I will take it away from you.”

Human beings are like half-full glasses searching for more love to fill the empty half. Yet every glass we encounter also has an empty half. The truth is that no one else has an excess of water to give us.

If a glass can spring from within and overflow, it can spill into other glasses and fill them as well.

We receive from the world what is already present within us. The more complete we become, the energy and force that flow outward from us call different people towards us, and in this way we transform our world.

In this video, Dr Areta considers what love is and how it may be sought.
